Beethoven Symphony No. 2: Tucson Symphony Orchestra

The Tucson Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Michelle Di Russo, presents Beethoven's Symphony No. 2 in a special concert in Tucson. This symphony, written four years before its 1806 performance, is known for its lively and energetic character.

Historically, Beethoven's Second Symphony was performed at a private concert for Count Franz von Oppersdorff, who was so impressed that he commissioned Beethoven's Fourth Symphony. This performance captures the same spirit of classical elegance and innovation.
